It seems that generosity is a trait that must be catching amongst youth in the New River Valley. Just a few weeks ago, a blog was posted about Carly, a youngster who asked for donations for our shelter in lieu of birthday presents at her birthday party. Now it is Charlotte's turn to have her moment in the Limelight.
Ten-year-old Charlotte, who is a Radford City resident, came to visit the animals at our shelter last week and to donate three whole weeks of allowance she had saved up which she receives for doing household chores. For those of us who can look back fondly to our days of being ten, it is easy to remember just how hard it was to wait for ONE week for allowance, let alone saving up for THREE!
So THANK YOU, Charlotte, for being so generous and for being an inspiration to others in the NRV, regardless of age!

appears that the adults around the NRV can learn from the children what it feels like to give from the heart!
